Given the draft states:

" Any particular inetnum: object MAY have, at most, one geofeed
   reference, whether a remarks: or a proper geofeed: attribute when one
   is defined."

Do we enforce this by validating that there is only one "remarks: Geofeed" 
value (or "geofeed:") in the object?

The RIPE database uses the Latin-1 character set, so IDN domain names or 
non-ASCII values in the URL path will be substituted with a '?' character, by 
default.

We could support non-ASCII values by automatically converting them (like we do 
with non-ASCII domains in email addresses).
